1756cc vs. 1860cc

Hello,
New to the site- Currently live in south GA near Thomasville and fish econfina/saint marks/ochlocknee bay area. My first boat was a riverhawk that i refurbished for inshore fishing. I learned real quick I needed something larger so sold the boat. I am in the market and seeking advice from current members in reference to all-weld boats.
I think an allweld boat would suit my needs for fishing the areas mentioned above. To those who currently own 1756cc or 1860cc:

Is their a major difference in stability/comfort between the two sizes?
Tunnel Hull option- I like the raised transom that comes with the tunnel.

I am planning on purchasing a used hull and investing in a new 4 stroke.
Any info. is appreciated-

-Chad

"Buy the biggest you can afford for the areas you want to fish"


Search some recent posts in the forum and you'll quickly find most-to-all saying go big (ie the 1860)

The WIDER the better. I had a 1966 G3. Sold that and bought an 1872 SeaArk that I'm totally renovating and it's a MUCH wider boat although one wouldn't think so. The difference in LOA is barely noticeable but the width IS.

10-4 thanks. Ill be searching online to hopefully find a good used 1860cc hull that I could somewhat customize.
